What's new

China monthly box office tops U.S. for first time

The new Captain America box office success: Of the $715m cross, $455m is in international market. of those $455m, only $39m is cross in China. LOL

Ok? and? The point I was trying to make was it was and still is a wildly popular movie all over the world. A movie that made a lot of box office $$$$$$ in and outside of America.

Chill. Relax. Nobody said Hollywood movies aren't good quality. People like to be entertain. That is the foremost important thing. But if you want to take to the next level like Avatar and Titanic level, you need to stop bullshitting with the typical American superhero theme nonsense which is prevalent in Hollywood movie industry these days.

My apologies if I came off a little standoffish .

I understand what you're trying to convey. I don't agree with some of it, but I understand. As you said "People like to be entertain. That is the foremost important thing." and that's what it comes down to with movies.

As for Superhero movies, I happen to like most of them as many do. I'm looking forward to some of the upcoming releases like Avengers 2 and Batman Vs Superman: Dawn of Justice.

Not a Superhero movie, but also looking forward to the new Star Wars film.

Movies are propaganda, however innocuous the themes appear. It's good that Chinese movie-goers are increasingly shunning Hollywood offerings for domestic productions. American morality and ideals are corrupt and distasteful and it's only beneficial that Chinese public do not buy into US culture. China should embrace and celebrate Chinese morality and values, which to me have always been far superior to their Western counterparts.

Exactly. Nobody needs their morality as the two nations' culture originates from different historical experiences.

China needs to produce more good quality script-writers. The story is as much important as the way it is told.

Another thing we need to master is subliminal messaging.

No one said you had to like Captain America. The second CA movie grossed almost 715 million USD worldwide. So obviously a lot of people liked the film. That film also debuted at number one in many territories.. including China.

Don't forget....The Hobbit 1, 2, and 3.

Batman Vs Superman: Dawn of Justice. I just can't see how Batman can survive lol. But hey, Wonder Woman is in right? Ooh La La, lasso me baby! :enjoy:

I really liked Chow Yan Fat in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon & Bulletproof Monk.

O man, CTHD was such a good movie back in the day. I also liked his performance in the remake of Rogers and Hammerstein's The King and I. :)

Yep Wonder Woman and Aquaman will be in the film. This will be the starting point for a future Justice League film.

and realistically speaking, As much as I like Batman, he could never survive a "mano a mano" fight with a man who possesses God like power. I don't necessarily think it will be a straight up fight. I think that's what they want people to believe to hype them up.

I loved that flick. I was seriously crushing on Ziyi Zhang too haha

Hehe, well I'm glad they are finally doing Justice League. What would really get me excited would be a crossover - Avengers vs Justice League. Imagine Superman vs the Hulk! World War Hulk! :eek:

I think I would almost be willing to sell my soul to make that happen. Every now and then, I will pull out my JLA/Avengers crossover comic from a few years back. Still get some chills watching the fight (even though I wish it would have;lasted a little longer) between Superman and Thor. :super:

Souls are worthless to the studios. Tell them you'll pay 30 bucks to watch it. Twice. 3 times including girlfriend/mistress. 4 times including wife & kids.

Now dream harder lol!

Batman is the only real Superhero in the Marvel Universe; the rest, including Superman, are wannabes ! :tongue:
